FYI. As a result of my posts in their forum arising from this topic, DataMystic have just released v8.9.8 of TextPipe.
The release notes include: * Updated internal PCRE (Pattern Matching ) engine to v8.13 and support for Unicode 6.0.0. * Updated Unicode internal libraries to support Unicode 4.1 for Normalization etc. I have confirmed that TextPipe now Normalizes Burmese script to NFC with identical results to BabelPad. As an avid user of TextPipe Standard edition, for me this is nice step forward. Our *BurJudson* module was made with the source text normalized to an earlier version of Unicode. Unless one specifies otherwise (by means of the -N switch), osis2mod performs normalization to NFC. I would therefore recommend that precompiled SWORD utilities (especially those for Windows) should be built such that they adhere to the latest Unicode standard for Normalization. Likewise, front-end developers may have something to gain by pursuing this topic further, seeing as ICU has implications during module search, in regard to normalization of a search string, such that it ought to match how the module was normalized.
